If Dencio's reply was of value to you, perhaps you could take the time to rate it. Click on Dencio's message and then click the Rate button (it looks like a thumb's up.) When you rate a message you not only show appreciation, you also tell other members that this post was of value and could conceivably be of value to others who are facing the same issues.
